Elemental Energy: Simplifying Decarbonization
025: Fully Packaged, Small Scale, Nuclear Power Generation Plants, with Michelle Brechtelsbauer
Join Michelle Brechtelsbauer and I in a discussion about small scale nuclear reactor technology, 20MW micro reactors in fact. We are talking about an innovative way of taking proven, pressurized water reactors and condensing them down into fully packaged modularized power plants, introducing the company Last Energy. Where the goal of selling small scale nuclear energy to anyone needing baseload power generation, is becoming a reality.
- Fully packaged nuclear power plants
- The economic model of Last Energy and its customer applications
- Constraints around new small nuclear technology coming online at the same time
- Timelines of having small nuclear power generation from Last Energy
